We have just returned from a two night stay in Cocoa Beach. The travel agency that book this hotel for us told us that It was a nice, clean hotel. Nonetheless, they must be blind, supid, or have never been to this place.

This MOTEL is soooo old, dirty, and the rooms smells. The beds are so low to the floor until they look like they are literally sitting on the floor. The carpet is nasty and the room smells moldy as if it has not been cleaned in years. This MOTEL need a major overhaul. It needs to be torn down and rebuilt again in order for it to come up to today standards. When we got ready to check in, we told the receptionist that we would like a clean room that does not smell. She said "I hope that all of our rooms are clean. Either she is blind and stupid or she does not go into the rooms.

They showed us two rooms. They both were the same. The room closest to the pool- when you go up the stair way has water running down it. I told the receptionist about this, it is an accident waiting to happen. The receptionist didn't appear to have any concern about all the water running down the stair way. I figured they were used to this. As I could tell this is something that occurs everyday.

There are some people who likes to stay in dumpy places, but I don't. So If you like a nasty, smelly, dumpy MOTEL this is the place for you. Otherwise, STAY AWAY.

We did not stay at this MOTEL. There was no way that I would risk staying at a place that is sooooo NASTY. We went down the street and stayed at the QUALITY SUITES HOTEL. The rooms are much, much cleaner and nicer than the Holiday Inn Oceanfront. And get this we paid a lesser rate at Quality Suites, it was only $69 a night and you get a nice clean, large suite with a livingroom area, wireless internet, and breakfast.

Try to get these amenities at Holiday Inn Oceanfront, you won't because they don't have them. Holiday Inn Oceanfront just don't compare to many of the Hotels that I have stayed at. It is a disgrace that It has the name Holiday Inn. I've stay at many Holiday Inns, but none like the one in Cocoa Beach Florida. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME GOING THERE.

The Holiday Inn at Cocoa Beach last saw its prime some 50 years ago. A run down establishment that is hard pressed to keep up with the ravages of time and neglect. The staff told us this is their last season and the whole place is coming down - not too hard to believe. Stayed three nights for an on-site wedding and moved on to nicer hotel in the area. If you have kids, are on a tight budget, don't care about the shabby rooms and need to be on the beach it will do. Otherwise savvy travelers should avoid this place like the plauge. Unfortunately the roaches and bed bugs that members of our party encountered loved the place.

Booked on Southwest.com as part of a airline/rental car/hotel package. We knew we wanted to be by a beach and it had to be close to Orlando since we were going there for attractions. The package price was good and the pictures on the hotel's site were good. After I booked it I saw the reviews and was kind of concerned having 2 little kids. The hotel could use updates and is definitely an older building. But the kids loved it. They loved the pool and the pirate kiddie pool. They didn't want to leave. Great location for the beach. Not far from shops, restraunts etc. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean but could use updating. Overall it was a good stay, if you are looking for something more upscale and quiet look at the other places. This is a good place for families with kids.

First off let me say that the company I work for owns related hotels -- that being said, I felt I should book my room through an IHG affiliate. Unfortunately, the property was unwilling to honor my employee rate. Still, I opted to stay at the Holiday Inn Oceanfront. I was disappointed that my bathroom was not cleaned on my second day there, nor were the towels refreshed and replaced. We went to a restaurant after a day at NASA and sat for over 15 minutes without service; you'd think if the hotel was sold out for a NASA launch, the management would have put on enough wait staff to serve the customer load. Frankly, the restaurant wasn't even full -- maybe 6 other tables. Another couple, seated after we were, left before we did because they hadn't received service either. The pool area had puddles of slimey water that could not possibly have accumulated overnight--watch your step!
The hotel was sold out Friday and Saturday nights due to the launch but space freed up immediately after. Went back to the front desk to see about moving rooms to something oceanfront. They wanted $150 per night to move. Frankly, the "resort" simply wasn't worth it, and they again wouldn't offer me employee pricing. We made a call to the Hilton and moved to a MUCH nicer hotel for the same price ($99 per night) we were charged at the Holiday Inn. Bottom line -- not worth the price. Go down the street and stay at the Hilton where you get better service, friendlier hotel staff, and better surroundings at a hotel that is still oceanfront.
